The Everyman Project’s ultimate purpose is the eradication of domestic violence. The charity works with the perpetrators of domestic violence through in depth counselling to achieve behavioural change, and also offers practical and therapeutic support to survivors of domestic violence. The charity has already made good progress and the Trustees want to develop the organisation further, building on the gains already made.

We are looking for a dynamic new CEO, able to lead and promote the organisation effectively and provide the vision necessary to take the organisation forward.

THE CONTEXT IN WHICH WE WORK AND WHAT WE DO

Each year around 2.1m people suffer domestic abuse.

The Early Intervention Foundation estimated that in 2016-17, late intervention in Domestic violence and abuse cases would cost the NHS £2,479 million, Police £879 million, Justice System £1,230 million, and local government £642 million.

Re-offending rates are difficult to calculate accurately, but evidence suggests that they are high, and, by some estimates, they are higher than for any other category of offending.

Flexible or part-time working also considered

Everyman Project enables individuals stuck in cycles of violence to reclaim their lives, break cycles of domestic and other interpersonal violence through a 30-week counselling programme for men, and bespoke partner support services for the victims/survivors. Men's counselling is managed by a qualified therapist with over 20 years’ experience and delivered by a team of counsellors. We receive referrals from Social Services, GPs, Family Court Service, Solicitors, psychiatrists, Judges, as well as self-referrals.

The Everyman Project is registered with the Charity Commission of England and Wales see charity number 1113568. Its ultimate purpose is to eradicate domestic violence by working with both perpetrators and survivors.

The Charity seeks to achieve its mission by offering thorough and in-depth counselling to perpetrators both in a series of one-to-one sessions and thereafter in a group counselling context. The survivors of domestic violence are also offered a programme of support both practical and therapeutic.

The Everyman Project was originally a volunteer led organisation which started in 1996 and in 2006 it reorganised and began to offer a programme managed by a mix of paid and volunteer professionals.

The trustees, together with the newly appointed Chief Executive, wish to build on the current progress of the organisation.

The role
